Some Experts Maintain That Students Learn Best in a Highly Structured Environment, One That Emphasizes Discipline, Punctuality, and Routine. Others Insist That Educators, If They Are to Help Students Maximize Their

Some people say that education is best imparted in a desciplined and structured environment, while others say that education should be the product of freedom and spontaneity. This issue, as stated in the passage, is debatable but a closer examination brings out some factors which certainly reveals that education is most effective when the students are allowed to express themselves.

First, it is imperative that students, the recipent of knowledge, should always stay keenly interested to receive that knowledge. there is a very old saying that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy'. Hence, the educators should always try and keep a playful environment in their classes or institutes. Seggregating study and play hours will, however, have an adverse effect, as it will make children look forward to the play hours and hence not give attention in the study hours. Indeed, the best solution is to make the very study environment itself full of fun activities, thus encouraging the students to engage in more creative activities through out their study hours. Also, this approach will also stop the students from craving for time separately when they can enjoy themselves. Furthermore, such an environment will also enable the teachers to recognize the strenghts and weaknesses of their students more correctly. The teacher student relationship would be more like friends, and students will be encouraged to share everything with them.

Second, we must keep in mind that we live in an ever changing society. And the rapid change demands rapid adaptations. Although formal education is a must for such adaptations, too much of it can be harmful. Children must be aquanted with diverse situations from their childhood, but without forcing it on them. Thus, the best way to do that is by giving them an flexible educational system. It would enable them to recognize the best way how to deal with various situations and overcome difficulties, which would be a great boon when they grow...

Why somestudents fail to learn,

Why somestudents fail to learn, and others succeed?
I began my quest for the answers behind this question: why somestudents fail to learn and otherstudents succeed, from my own personal experiences. My brother and I grew up in the same lifestyle; same home, and went to the same schools. It was not an easy childhood and we didn’t attend the best schools. Our parents were not involved with our school work and the examples they set were not positive. I choose a path of sports, education, and integrity. My brother choose drugs and violence after my parents. I succeeded in school and sports and he didn’t. That question of how I escaped that lifestyle and why education meant so much to me goes through my mind everyday. I asked Laurel Wodrich at Woodland Intermediate West, a middle school located in Gurnee, Illinois this same question. Laurel replied with “Not all students fit into the perfect mold of a student. Every child is different, learns different, and advances different”. I couldn’t of said it better myself. Laurel has been a teacher for 18 years and currently works with students in Special Education.

Dante the Popes & The Catholic Church
We know now that one of the main reasons Dante wrote the Divine Comedy was because of his qualms with the Catholic Church, the institution he blames for his exile. Dante uses his talent as a poet to convey those feeling through invectives, be they direct or indirect. His strong dislike for the Catholic Church and specifically the papacy does not arise from a dislike of the religion but rather more of a dislike of what the church had become. In Dante’s interpretation of hell he has dammed three popes to Inferno; Pope Celestine V, Pope Anastasius, and Pope Nicholas III. Although Dante does not talk to the first two popes the symbolism of them just being there is more than enough to convey what he has intended for his audience to interpret. Dante further attack the Catholic Church and clergymen several times and inserts his idea of what the church should be.
The position of pope in Dante's time was that of great power and influence since the pope was the direct connection between mankind and God so his words is perceived as that of God's, many noted this and took advantage of it. Dante encounters Pope Celestine V grave shortly after passing through the gates of hell. There is some mystery surrounding this specific reference as Dante does not call the pope out by name merely makes us assume Celestine is the one Dante is talking about. This "namelessness...

...pigment stored in the cell vacuole in the membrane to prevent leaking out from the cell. In this experiment we used several solvents to calculate which one made the cell release more pigment.
RESULTS: A table showing the results of the intensity of the color and the absorbance of the liquids with the different solvents.
Solvent
Results from colorimeter 0.001
Acid (Hydrochloric)
0.358
Ethanol
0.132
Hot water
0.984
Cold water-distilled water (control)
0.057
CONLUSION: The results show that hot water gave the highest average absorbance reading from the colorimeter, followed by hydrochloric acid, ethanol and cold water, in descending order of absorbance.
The absorbance of the solvent that was hot water affected the most the permeability of the cell membranes. This is because if the temperature is higher it will break down big part of the membrane due to the fact that when heat energy is given to something, the electrons will vibrate therefore breaking their bonds and changing state of matter, with hot water the membrane from the beetroot released more pigment fitting this process. We kept temperature of the hot water constant and we did not let it boil because this could affect the pigment released by the beetroot, it could potentially denature the membrane of the beetroot.
Hydrochloric acid in other words, the pH can affect the membrane affecting the proteins that make up cell membranes therefore allowing the beetroot...

Abstract
With the development of science, people start to decrease occurrence of death, for example, people investigated some useful therapy to treat people’s disease in pharmacology. Also, human want to figure out the natural disaster like tsunamis and volcanic eruption to let people are longevity. Although today’s technic are not enough to solve those disasters, people can use the different instrumentality to forecaster. In addition, people always prefer compare and contrast these instrumentalities to develop what they’ve already discovered. Thus, I’d love to discussed the advanced technology artifice of what I’ve just mentioned as examples— eruption of tsunamis and volcanic which reflect on millions of economic losing and death.
Introduction
Here’s an adage of ancient China called Man Proposes, God disposes, which can be translated as human’s power are very chickenshit in front of nature. People cannot decide when and where the disaster happened, they even cannot stop them, but...

...market value. It means that they can decide the price for their products and services.
Some examples are electric market, water supply market, and fuel market in Vietnam. Because there is only one electric company and very few company in water supply market and fuel market, so that they can decide their price and charge a high price for their service. The reason is the government regulations in Vietnam, the government controls those market.
2. Problem #2, page 15 in textbook.
The perfectly competitive market does not reflect a setting of strategic interaction because in this market structure each firm can not decide the price for their product or service. As the result, they do not need to make plan or strategy for their firms.
Chapter 2
3. Explain the profit-maximizing production decision of a perfectly competitive firm. Be sure to describe the assumptions/market structure of perfect competition and the condition that guarantees maximum profit.
Assumption:
Infinity buyers and sellers.
Free entry and exit.
All the firms produce a standardize product.
All the buyers and sellers can have all the information about the market.
The perfectly competitive firms area price takers and they can not influence the market price.
To maximize the profit, the perfectly competitive firms have to choose an output level that market price equal the marginal revenue (MR=P).
To maximize the profit the marginal...

... “How Flowers Changed the World” Questions and Answers
1. Eiseley states that observers from the far side of our solar system could have perceived only one change in the whole history of the planet Earth. Describe this change and explain what would have been responsible for it.
a. Eiseley says they would be able to “discern a subtle change in the light emanating from our planet”. What Eiseley is talking about is the evolution of earth from a place with red deserts like Mars and blackness of naked basalt to that of a green planet enveloped in plants.
2. What was the soundless, violent explosion that Eiseley refers to? Why could this be referred to as an explosion?
a. The sudden appearance and domination of angiosperms/flowering plants. This can be defined as an explosion because plants went from relative unimportance to suddenly taking a revolutionary role in the entire earth’s ecosystem. Just like an explosion, angiosperms spread extremely suddenly and rapidly.
3. What type of plants were the first to appear on land?
Eiseley notes that these plants clung of necessity to swamps and watercourses and did not move to drier areas. Why were these plants not successful on drier land?
a. Eisely states the first types of plants to appear were “wandering fingers of green” that crept along river systems as well as primitive ferns and mosses.
b. The reproductive processes of these plants depended on water. These plants did not use seeds to reproduce;...
